Me, I've got "Self-Destructing Cookies" plugins in my various browsers. Which lets me accept all cookies everywhere, smug in the knowledge that they will be deleted the instant I close that browser tab. I can even set it to delete the cookies only when I close the whole browser window, which is helpful with online stores.

As posted to the FB:
Today I had a lovely chat with "Miss Kitty" of the Long Branch Saloon/Motel. She's a trip and she gave me the skinny. The Motel has 12 rooms but a couple are booked already. She's got some rooms with 2 x King beds and some rooms w/ 1 queen bed. She only allows 4 ppl in the double rooms and 2 ppl in the single rooms.
Prices for the 7th - 10th are about $110/per room per night.
Saloon is open 4pm - 930pm
Saloon is closed Sunday and Monday.
We can book all the available rooms now, but she needs a deposit of the first night's stay up front. This deposit is NON REFUNDABLE. I'm sure we can all call individually to book, but procrastinators might be screwed with the place being so small...
She said there's 5 doubles and 2 singles getting us room for 24 ootmiks. But that's only 7 rooms where originally she said we could book 9 rooms, but at that point I needed to get off the phone...
Lemme know what you guys think, what questions I should ask when I call again, and whatever else. How many will stay until Monday? If enough ppl are gung-ho and want to Venmo me some non-refundable funds, I can make the 1st night deposit and book the place.

Re: DOOM 2022...??
DOOMing Banjos? DOOMliverance?
The DOOM that came to Appalachia:
So I just took the initiative and booked two double-rooms at the Long Branch Saloon/Motel for October 7th - 10th. If you want to DOOM with me there, I've got room for 6 other Ootmiks as I think Aggro is already on board.
If you want your own room, be sure to call and book asap, as the motel only has 12 rooms total. Enjoy your chat with Miss Kitty, she's pretty hilarious.
If there's objections, or if a new doom location is ..er, located, I can always cancel.
Lemme know in the comments if you want to crash in one of my rooms...

Same here, I need the mileage, the away time, and to visit with my internet friends again.
I've been tweaking and plotting my route, found a couple of good camp sites. Plan to leave Thurs morning, camp somewhere near Parkersburg, WV. Nice easy day, then roll out to the new Portal on Friday. Not sure if I'll stay at the saloon with you all, there are some nice wooded areas around it. Maybe they'll let me make camp.

I started watching a video over the Mid Atlantic BDR, last night. This treasure is not too far from where we'll be staying:
https://goo.gl/maps/Eg3XLvEgYyJDQCLMA, along with section 4 of the MABDR. I believe that section is all paved, but I'm going to verify that. Might be a fun Saturday trip!

ok... it's official. I'm in for 2022, barring any major events (please dear gods, no more major negative events). I got the nod from my wife, my boss, and I've got the PTO hours.
I'm rolling on the cheap, so my broke ass is either gonna camp near by, or sleep on someone's floor. I may or may not be riding with rench, we're still working that out. I'll be there on Friday, probably mid-day, and head home on Sunday.

So I haven’t logged into the mother ship for quite some time and I came here tonight and read the DOOM thread.
I would really love to attend this year and see all of you hooligans again, even if I no longer have 2-wheeled transport.
Has a replacement DOOM location been nailed down? And if so, who do I throw $$ at to reserve space?
I’m even willing to stay at a DOOM-adjacent hotel to give priority to those who actually rode in on 2.

Re: DOOM 2022...??
It's true -- both Mook and Red were there.
I think I was there. Things between Friday night and Sunday morning are a little hazy and frostbitten -- largely courtesy of that double shot Rench insisted I drink -- but I think it was generally a good time.
The ride home was honestly gorgeous and thankfully less frostbitten than I'd feared. Also, I was a lot less hungover and more appropriately dressed for it. I have subsequently ordered those goddamn barkbuster-type hand guards to go on Lilah to keep at least some of the wind blast off. I'll get heated grips on her too, but this is a quick and reasonable fix to the amount I really ride in the cold any more.
Good to see y'all, even if just briefly. We had a couple of other surprise visits like SSCAM and Rolly!
